Nigerian singer and producer Young Jonn has expressed frustration over being left out of discussions about the country’s top musicians.

Despite his impressive musical achievements, Young Jonn believes his background in music production causes people to overlook his contributions as a singer.

The Dada hitmaker shared his thoughts on his X (formerly Twitter) handle, where he stated, “I see how you all leave me out of conversations prolly ’cause I started out as a producer.

Continue! Time will tell!” His message reveals his disappointment but also his confidence that his talent will eventually get the recognition it deserves.

Young Jonn’s journey in the music industry began as a producer for YBNL Nation, the record label founded by Nigerian rap icon Olamide.

During his time at YBNL, he played a significant role in shaping the sound of Nigerian street pop by producing major hits for artists like Olamide and Lil Kesh.

Some of his notable production credits include Story for the Gods, Shoki, and Gbese.

These songs became anthems, solidifying his reputation as a hit-making producer.

However, Young Jonn wasn’t content to stay behind the scenes.

After leaving YBNL, he signed with Chocolate City and successfully transitioned to singing.

Since then, he has built a catalog of hit songs that have dominated the airwaves, including Dada, Xtra Cool, Big Big Things, Bahamas, and Stronger.

His versatility, catchy melodies, and relatable lyrics have earned him a strong fanbase.

Mr. Macaroni, a well-known Nigerian comedian, skit maker, and activist, has shared why he refuses to acknowledge Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu publicly.

This revelation came after an X user, @OyesileJohn, criticized Macaroni for ignoring the Governor.

The user posted, “To d’ifa fun a certain Macaroni who, in an attempt to please the mob, snubbed the governor of Lagos state. Omo ase.”

In his response, Mr. Macaroni doubled down on his stance, saying he would continue to ignore Governor Sanwo-Olu, whom he referred to as “your Governor.”

He added, “He doesn’t mean anything to me, neither do you or your father.

I love that you slaves bring this issue up all the time.

For every time you do, I will send you to your masters.”

Explaining his reason, the skit maker recounted his harrowing experience during the End SARS protests in October 2020.

Mr. Macaroni, whose real name is Debo Adedayo, was among the protesters arrested at the Lekki Toll Gate.

He revealed that he was stripped, beaten, and dehumanized while in detention.

According to him, the police officers who brutalized him told him to “stop disturbing the governor.”
